A 505 New York Assembly · 2025 Regular Session

Establishes representative requirements for district leadership teams and school leadership teams

This New York City bill mandates that every district and school leadership team must include at least one student representative. District teams must appoint a high school student chosen by the community superintendent, while school teams appoint a student selected by the team's chairperson. It directly affects all New York City public school leadership structures by requiring student participation in decision-making bodies. The policy change is purely procedural, establishing appointment rules without altering educational programs or funding.
